Now, each day will feature The Texoma Report, a local newscast airing in the bottom of each hour during Morning Edition and All Things Considered. Broadcasts will originate with All Things Considered and replay during Morning Edition, giving The Texoma Report a normal schedule of Monday-Thursday during ATC and Tuesday-Friday during Morning Edition. The Friday afternoon segment from Quartz Mountain Nature Park remains unchanged. The Texoma Report replaces the KCCU Newsminutes, which had been the primary method of local news delivery during these programs. Now, KCCU listeners will be able to get their local news in one informative newscast, rather than hearing different pieces of the news once per hour. In addition to the news of the day, The Texoma Report will also air KCCU's award-winning locally-produced feature stories, as well as the in-depth reports of StateImpact Oklahoma and StateImpact Texas plus other stories fromA New Format for Local News - The Texoma Reporthttp://kccu.org/post/new-format-local-news-texoma-report

After brief remarks from President Ross and Aggie softball player Sonora Zukerman, McMahon Foundation Board of Trustees chairman Kenneth Bridges threw out the ceremonial first pitch. A large crowd was on hand for the ceremonies, which included tours of the new athletic center and a three-inning game between a team of Cameron softball alumni and friends, and a team of Lawton firefighters and police officers.

He will take over effective July 1, replacing the retiring Dr. Cindy Ross. McArthur has served as Cameron's provost since 2006, overseeing the academic areas of the university and working on major university initiatives. Prior to that appointment, he served as the dean of CU's School of Science and Technology. McArthur's selection marks the end of a process that began in January with the announcement of Ross's impending retirement. He was chosen from "a variety of solid, capable candidates," as OU Board of Regents chairman Richard Dunning said in the release, one of whom was former Oklahoma Lieutenant Governor and Duncan native Jari Askins. KCCU will have more on McArthur's appointment in the coming days.
